❝ Hi, this is Xion. I'm busy right now, but if you leave a message, I promise I'll get back to you as soon as I can. ❞

[when Xion gets this call, she does not bother returning it. instead, she just opens a corridor of darkness—the next moment, she's in 7-6, quickly sweeping the room in her search for him. she's still very alert from running around during the lockdown, hence the sort of rushed feeling and tenseness in her voice and movements.]

Hope? Where are you?

[Hope emerges from his bedroom, a look of relief on his face to see that his girlfriend is alive and well.]

Xion...

[But the relief is quickly replaced by a serious expression when he sees how alert she is. He pulls out his boomerang and clicks it open. He's ready for a fight. He steps quickly towards her and a blue glow surrounds him and quickly fades as he switches over to the Ravager paradigm.]

I'm right here. Let's go.

Right.

[she nods and takes his hand as she guides him toward the still-open corridor. as the darkness within the portal swirls around, she summons her Keyblade in her free hand and glances back at him with determination firm in her eyes.]

Hang on, and be ready when we get there.

[she then pulls him forward and leads him through the darkness. she makes sure to not keep them in there too long, though—she knows what too much exposure to the darkness can do to a person, and the last person she wants to lose is Hope. a quick trip like this shouldn't do any harm to him, but... still.]

[He nods, meeting her determination.]

Got it.

[He follows her into the darkness. It feels a little weird, but he's been through one before. He tightens his grip on Xion's hand and lets her lead him through.]

[eventually, they emerge back on the Sigrun. Xion closes the corridor with a wave of her hand and shoots a quick glance up and down the hallway they've arrived in. the faint echoes of other skirmishes taking place in other parts of the ship rebound off the walls, but for them, the coast is clear.]

Looks like we're okay for now. [she exhales and relaxes a little, but doesn't drop her guard.] Naminé's safe, don't worry. She's helping Yoshimori search for other people that have gotten stuck here.

Right.

[He nods and keeps his guard up as well, scanning the halls for danger. This place is bringing back baaaaad flashbacks of Cocoon, and he's been getting very complacent for the past year. Still he remembers all of Light's instructions, and he knows that if he fails, Xion's the one who's going to pay the price. That's motivation enough to sharpen up.]

We gotta help as many people as we can too, and get them someplace safe, like near the doors, in case the captains find a way to unlock them.

[And now, for some angry!Hope.]

How could they have let this happen? This ship is just like the Thor! They had to know something like this was gonna happen if they kept messing around with it!

That sounds like a good idea.

[she sighs, hand tightening on her Keyblade as she briefly looks down.]

I don't know what they were thinking, either. But... whatever it is, even if it could have been avoided—it's been done already. We can't change the past. We can only try to make it better from here.

[she then shakes her head and starts to move down the hallway, beckoning for Hope to follow.]

So let's start now.

Wait! Before we go....

[And with a quick switch to Synergist, he rapidly throws a barrier, shell, and bravery (the one that boosts attack) on her.]

I just made you stronger and harder to hurt, even with Magic. Healing and hurting aren't my only powers.

[she's caught by surprise at first; after Hope casts the spells, she can actually feel that she's become stronger and more resilient.]

Wow... that's amazing. Thank you.

[she's truly in awe—they're perfect complements, even in battle, huh? she cracks a quick smile at him before getting back on track.]

[He's at her heels, switching to Ravager and also smiling a bit.]

I've got your back. Those spells don't last forever, so let me know when you need me to bring them back.

Got it.

[with her newfound vigor—from both Hope's spells and him just being there with her—she leads the way. a bit of her survivalist instincts from performing recon for the Organization start to kick in, showing a more serious side of her that Hope probably hasn't seen before. she keeps them close to the shadows, taking care to make sure her footfalls are as quiet as possible. every little unfamiliar noise or sound catches her attention, but within a fraction of a second she's able to place it as harmless, and dismisses it as they continue on.]
